A large suburb with different areas having different advantages. Given the size, a car is usually required to get around as there is a large distance between the parks, shops, train station and the beach. However if you can find a house relatively central to all amenities, it is possible to get around by bike or foot, just be ready to tackle the steep hills.
Many houses feature ocean views or views of the national park.
The 2 train stops within Hallett Cove provide quick access into the CBD on an express train or to Marion shopping center.
Given the many houses were built in the 70's and 80's, some are now becoming run down and not properly maintained however this can mean some bargain buying at near land value with only a small cost to fix up.
